Name        : systemd
Product     : Fedora 18

Summary     : A System and Service Manager
Description :
systemd is a system and service manager for Linux, compatible with
SysV and LSB init scripts. systemd provides aggressive parallelization
capabilities, uses socket and D-Bus activation for starting services,
offers on-demand starting of daemons, keeps track of processes using
Linux cgroups, supports snapshotting and restoring of the system
state, maintains mount and automount points and implements an
elaborate transactional dependency-based service control logic. It can
work as a drop-in replacement for sysvinit.

Update Information:

This update brings fixes related to the processing of environment files:
- `$` and ` are properly escaped when writing environment files.
- Invalid assignments are logged as errors.
- The `#` character following an assignment on the same line is treated as a part of the value.
- Whitespace chopping of both keys and values.

isdn.service has been removed from the default preset file.
